That's not uncommon. The contacts can get a touch of corrosion on them, and just unplugging them and plugging them in again can get a broken computer working. It's like Yuri Geller and his psychic "watch repair" trick: a lot of times a "broken" watch just has a little corrosion holding two gears together, and shaking it and warming it up so the metal shifts or expands a little and breaks the frozen contact will get it going again. Or did, anyway, back when watches were usually mechanical and not a cheap quartz mechanism in a fancy case. :) -- Compact Macs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/>.
